Flyspray

I’m currently using flyspray 0.9.9.7

I want to make a little integration of our flyspray installation into slack.
I want make a POST request when a “new task is created”

Any experiment guy can help here ?
1. Where is the best place to achieve this quickly as “hack hardcode” 2. Im not php developer, is there any php lib in flyspray todo quick POST request without installing any additional lib.

The last build is very old, it is possible to create a new build?
- The last RC: 2 years soon
- The last stable: 9 years soon

Flyspray 0.9.9.7 - 28 May 2012

Tags can only be added on the “new task” page, not managed on the “edit task”-page. done

• The information when a tag is added or removed and by whom logged through flyspray_history table is still TODO.
• The information when a tag is added by whom is visible when hovering over it in the task details view
• Tags are now also searched by the submitted search string when doing a task search.
• In addition to the project level ‘free tagging’ which allows users create new tag names there exists also a use_tags permission per project. This is currently only used on some of the appropriate locations.

Today I received a Spam into my Flyspray, I wanted to ban the user and to delete the task, to my surprise I didn’t see an option to -delete- a created task, so I don’t want to keep this spammy content into my DB or even worse, publically viewable to other users / or google (which will impact in seo and also make their spamming successful forever), I just wanted to simply remove the task entirely from the DB

So my only option was to restore the 2-days before database backup in order to remove it, then I upgraded to the last git checkout but I didn’t see that option existing

I think flyspray needs to have that option included

Thank you

For users with administrative permissions, a moderation UI for spam tasks could be useful.

For other normal users a “mark as spam”-button (similiar to voting for a task) could help moderators to identify spam tasks.

1. Modify the spam task: Move to a hidden “Trash” project, replace summary and description with a default spam summary text end empty description.
2. The decision which kind of punishment of the account who created the spam depends on several things:
   • Is it a previously normal used account who got captured by a bad guy and suddenly started spamming?
   • Is it a fresh bot created account who tried creating many spam task to promote bad websites or do search ranking manipulation?
   • Is it a sneaky smart account who waits for the opportunity to offload spam in a subtile manner?

I think this is not so easy to automate without producing false positives, especially for a project without commercial interest and funding and no huge meta informations like Google or similiar data collecting corporation who have the ability to identify spam waves across the internet.

PHP 8.0 is now released (2020-11-26) and Flyspray should be made compatible with it.

• Replace removed and deprecated functions with alternatives in our source code.
• Upgrade used libraries or make used libraries compatible:
  • post github issue or pull requests for ADODB
  • upgrade used dokuwiki or make changes in our integration (probably just review our as official dokuwiki project contains too much stuff we do not need and changed much)
  • review used geshi
  • upgrade our swiftmailer version to PHP8 compatible version
  • upgrade our oauth2-client stuff to PHP8 compatible version

• The @ operator no longer silences fatal errors. Some checks in installer or other areas might not work anymore as expected when the @-operator was used as silencer for previous PHP versions.

When there is a link to the new task action from another site to a Flyspray installation and the user is not yet logged in, there is a redirect to the Flyspray start page losing the GET parameters.

Example:

https://bugs.flyspray.org/index.php?do=newtask&project=1&item_summary=blablabla%product_category=1

Or short example (nicer urls using .htaccess rules)

https://bugs.flyspray.org.de/newtask/proj1?item_summary=blablabla&product_category=1

After login the user should see the form with the original link parameters (if the user is allowed to and parameters are valid)

Currently the user must navigate to the correct project (if there are several) and the parameters from the origin link are lost.

Hi

Please advise if there are known issues when integrating Flyspray with Active Directory using LDAP.

I have done a very quick bit of work to bring ldap (through active directory) authentication to flyspray for our implementation in the office. I hope it will be of use to others. There is a readme.txt inside talking through the process and the patch to apply. My plan is to expand on this and make it part of the setup process but this will take a bit longer.

It would be helpful to have communication with LDAP via TLS

Please support Central Authentication Service, thank you.

I need metrics for flyspray projects about a rest api. For example the count of issues for status, priority. I want use this values for my code analysis system http://www.sonarqube.org/ and other internal tools. It is possible to create a rest api with user authorization and only for metrics data?
